White House Spokesman: "Arab port deal not on the presidential level."


White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan acknowledged Wednesday that Bush did not know about the sale of the six major port operations to a Dubai company until after Administration approval had been granted. 'This didn't arise to the presidential level,' McClellan said. 'You have all the security departments that are involved in this, the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Defense, the Department of State. You have the National Security Council that is part of this process, too. And there are representatives from each of those departments and agencies that participate in this process, some 12 departments and agencies that are involved.' McClellan added, 'If there have been concerns about national security threats, then I am sure that additional steps would have been taken."

Let me repeat, White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan said that turning over 6 major American ports, "Didn't arise to the presidential level." Really now. We are in a War on Terror and the Presidents spokesman says turning over our ports to Saudi's who were 15 of the 19 9/11 hijackers is not on the presidential level? Excuse me? Tell that to the families of dead American troops. Tell that to the families of those killed on 9/11. Tell that to the 100,000 plus dead Iraqis. This further proves that George W. Bush is a puppet for Dick Cheney and James Baker. George does what he is told. Impeachment time. I'm Chaz Atlas and that's how I see it.
